    I'm starting rads tomorrow - the radiation will be to my nodes and the entire left breast - which was reconstructed after my BMX (final exchange was 1 year ago).

    I have been warned that there is at least a 50% chance that I will have to have my implant removed after rads.

    Has anyone else had rads to a "foob" and what was your experience ? 

    Thanks very much - Juliet
